  1. Most diet programs allow you to lose weight by restricting caloric
    intake. The methods of restriction may include low fat diets, high
    intake of fruits and vegetables or low carb diets. If you are
    successful in losing weight and keeping it off with any of these
    programs you are destined to age at a fast rate.

    Why?

    Aging is the imbalance between wear and tear of the body and the rate
    of tissue repair. While wear and tear to some extent is out of our
    control the rate of tissue repair is not. The greater the repair rate
    of the body, the slower the rate of aging, vice versa, the slower the
    repair rate of the body the faster the rate of aging. Excess caloric
    intake is essential for a rapid repair rate of the body,but if your
    diet is set only to meet your basic metabolic needs it means that your
    rate of repair will be slow due to inadequacy of caloric intake.
    Therefore most diets will cause you to age faster.

    To age slowly, you must have a non-restrictive diet but most
    non-restrictive diets will shunt excess calories into fat, so while you
    may age more slowly you will be getting fatter.

    The Sabbatical Diet is a non-restrictive diet which selectively shifts
    the excess caloric intake into protein metabolism and tissue repair and
    is the only diet that slows the aging process while preventing obesity
    at the same time.

    Medicine trained at the University of The West Indies. He has over ten
    (10) years experience in the management of patients with obesity and
    other chronic non-communicable diseases. He is the author of the book
    "The Sabbatical Diet" http://www.sabbaticaldiet.com

  3. Yea maybe Common sense dictates you are an idiot. But guess what, at my
    class reunion all my low carb friends looked near slim but old. That
    was the comment of the girls in our group. Common sense tell me that
    maybe there is a connection between low carb and getting on in life.
    Do a check yourself. Compare the looks of low carb persons with their
    peers.Seriously.

    Aging is caused by telomere shortening, & oxidation.

    The article is nonsense. The famous study by Clive McCay 60 years ago showed
    that you increase lifespan in rats by reducing calories.

    Let's see who's the idiot. You posted nonsense. When the resident
    troll let his bot respond to you you apparently didn't look back
    through
    the archives enough to figure out what was going on. You have not
    gone through the archives to learn that the "Reply" button under
    "show options" does set up quotes correctly.

    But here's where it really comes in. You're lying and it doesn't even
    appear that you know you're lying. Following the directions of pretty
    much any low carb program takes years *off* the appearance of
    nearly everyone who does it. It's the folks who abuse programs that
    look older, and the ones who abuse low fat get wrinkles even faster.

    Absolutely do that. It's one of the best factors in favor of low carb
    out there. Just *look* at the ones who *follow the directions* of
    whatever plan they are on. It doesn't even matter which low carb
    plan they pick. Pick anyone who's followed the directions of their
    low carb plan for 3+ months, and then ask to see their before pix.

  9. Actually, studies on low calorie diets show an increase in longevity. So
    apparently your "common sense meter" is broke!

  10. "The article is nonsense. The famous study by Clive McCay 60 years ago
    showed
    that you increase lifespan in rats by reducing calories. "

    And there has been more focus on this with more studies recently that
    came to the same conclusion. I recall seeing a segment on NBC news a
    few years ago about a small number of true believers that put
    themselves on this type of starvation diet believing they will live a
    lot longer. They interviewed one guy in San Francisco and showed the
    tiny amout of food he was eating. A small salad with no dressing was a
    typical meal. Only problems were feeling hungry all the time, lack of
    energy, total loss of libido and his doctor telling him that at 35 he
    was already showing signs of osteoporosis.

    But extremes aside, I've never seen anyone credible suggesting that one
    needs excess calories for tissue repair as a way of life extension.
    So, I vote with those that say Common Sense has none!
